ABSTRACT
Introduction: In odonto-pediatric practice, it is common to find permanent teeth with pulpal damage, they present an incomplete apical root closure, being a primary interest to promote the normal apical termination, in order to guarantee the establishment of an adequate coronary heart rate and thus successfully conclude the final endodontic procedure. Among the different alternatives that allow to provide a good prognosis to the young permanent tooth, revascularization has been proposed, a treatment based on the concept that vital stem cells that can survive pulp necrosis are capable of differentiating into secondary odontoblasts and contributing to conformation. of the root tissue. Objective: To carry out an revascularization update to permanent immature teeth, based on the review of recent literature. Materials and methods: Bibliographic documentary research, for which a total of 1,158 articles located in search engines, databases and digital portals of indexed scientific journals were reviewed, finally selecting 32 according to the inclusion criteria assigned. Results: A total of 14 case studies were found, 12 with two or more cases, and 6 comparative studies, all of longitudinal design, with a follow up minimum three months and maximum 5 years (60 months). Conclusions: revascularization is an easy-to-use treatment that represents undoubted advantages over conventional apical formation as they show the evidence, in addition to achieving apical closure, stimulates the deposition of mineralized tissue in the walls of the canal, thus being a treatment of high predictability and success for the conservation of non-vital immature permanent teeth.
